Question about Toshiba 42H81 42" Rear Projection Television
I have a Toshiba 42H81 that has the power indicator light blinking and the TV will not turn on. The TV was on when I was pushing it back into place because I was just rearranging the cables to the satellite TV when it just turned off and did not turn back on. I read in one of the other posts that it could be a fuse. Where is the fuse you'all are talking about? Is it the little clear glass fuse near the power cord on the board near the back of the unit? If that is the one, my problem is not that fuse because that one is not blown, or it appears to not be blown. Any healp would be greatly appreciated--JROD
Pushing it back in place went it went out tells me that the problem is probably a poor solder connection. That arcing probably took out one of the fuses, but a fuse is NEVER the cause merely a symptom. I would begin by examining the black wire that feeds the +16v to the convergence IC's on the main board. The convergence circuit is the most thermal circuit in that unit. Next check for any jumpers and other component joints that appear to be ring cracked. Even the convergence amps themselves. Then check for open fuses after you've made a good inspection. Check for fuses: F850 & F851 5amp, F470 2amp, and F890 3.15amp and one of these are likely open. But if you replace them without correcting the problem that cause them to open it will simply happen again.. Good Luck Bill

This appears to be a duplicate post - - and I'm not sure which one you'll check for an answer so here goes: Pushing it back in place went it went out tells me that the problem is probably a poor solder connection.

Bill-thanks for the timely response!!!but.....could you point me in the general direction of the fuses? Do they look like everyday run of the mill fuses? How do I find where they are? Do I have to remove any components to get at them? Will I be OK rummaging around the guts of my TV without fear of lighting up like a christmas tree? At what point should I call a professional and how much (ballpark) would it cost?
I have a Toshiba Theater View Television and the red button in the front blinks but it won't turn on with or without the remote. I don't see an area where there is a fuse, what can I do?
I have a Toshiba 42H81 that has the power indicator light blinking and the TV will not turn on.
I have the same problem. Blinking light on the front of the TV and it will not turn on.
i have the same problem and i will try your solution and let you how it turns out
